Tools You’ll Need
Locate the following items, before you begin to install the drive:
■A medium-size Phillips screwdriver
■Your computer system’s manual (you may need to look up
information about the location of your IDE connectors)
Before You Begin
Before you begin the installation, you need to decide whether you will be
installing the CD-Writer Plus in an empty drive bay, or whether you will
be replacing an existing CD-ROM with the CD-Writer Plus drive. Watch
for special installation directions for each situation.
NOTE: In the Toshiba Infinita and IBM Aptiva computers, install the CD-
Writer Plus in an empty drive bay, and not as a replacement for an existing CD-
ROM drive. Because of the fit between the CD-Writer Plus and these computers
it may not be possible to replace the CD-ROM drive with the CD-Writer Plus
drive.

Getting an Install Recommendation
CD-Writer Plus’ installation program will analyze your computer and
make a recommendation about connecting the CD-Writer Plus hardware.
This recommendation is specific to your computer and is the first step in
successfully installing CD-Writer Plus.
1. Go back to the main menu and click on the Install CD-Writer Plus icon.
2. Follow the instructions on the screen.
3. When the CD-Writer Plus Install Recommendation screen appears, click
Print. Or, if you don’t have a printer, copy the information by hand.
You’ll need this information in the next section.
Installing the Hardware
CAUTION: The discharge of static electricity can damage electronic circuitry.
You can avoid static discharge by touching a grounded metal object such as
your computer’s case before and during installation of hardware inside your
computer or by wearing a grounding strap connected to ground.
1. Remove the CD labeled Software Disc 1 from your CD-ROM drive.
2. After getting the Install Recommendation (see the previous section) you
will be prompted to shut down Windows. Click the Shutdown button
and wait until it is safe to turn off your computer. Proceed to turn OFF
your computer, monitor, and other devices.
3. Unplug the power cords from the wall outlet or from the power strip, if
you use one.

4. Remove the cover from your computer
CAUTION: Be careful of any sharp edges that may be present inside your
computer.
5. If you are installing the drive into an empty drive bay, remove the cover
plate from a larger half-height drive bay.
If you are replacing an existing CD-ROM drive, remove the drive. Take
note of where the cables are attached and lay them aside to reconnect to
Computer OFF See your computer’s
manual if you need help

the CD-Writer Plus. You will not need the data cable that came with your
CD-Writer Plus. If there was an audio cable connected to the drive you
just removed, you may use it in place of the audio cable that came with
the CD-Writer Plus.
6. Look at the other drives that are installed in your computer to see if your
computer’s case requires rails or mounting brackets to hold a drive in
place. If it does, use an extra set of rails that came with your computer
and attach them to the sides of CD-Writer Plus. If you are replacing an
existing drive, check to see if it has special rails or brackets that can be
used on your CD-Writer Plus. If you do not have an extra set, contact
your computer’s manufacturer to obtain rails.
7. Write the CD-Writer Plus’ serial number in the space below. The serial
number is on the main label on the top of the drive.

8. Read the Install Recommendation you printed earlier (see page 1-4). The
Install Recommendation tells you whether the jumper on the CD-Writer
Plus should be set as Master or Slave for your computer.
9. Find the pairs of pins labeled Master, Slave, and Cable Select on the back
of the CD-Writer Plus. Notice that one pair of pins has a small plastic cap
or jumper. This jumper can be pulled off using your fingers, tweezers, or
needlenose pliers, and placed on a different pair of pins to change the
setting.
